What is a Lasting Power of Attorney?

A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legally binding document, which enables you to choose a person, or people, that you trust to step into your shoes in the future if you are ever mentally or physically incapable of dealing with your own property and financial affairs or you do not have the mental capacity to make decisions surrounding your health and welfare.

There are two types of LPA:

Health and Welfare LPA

If you have made a Health and Welfare LPA, your attorney will be able to make decisions about, for example, the care and treatment you receive, where you will live and who will visit you. If you do not have an LPA, your loved ones will be left in a difficult position. The relevant authorities will be responsible for making decisions for you, such as medical professionals, care providers and social services.

Property and Financial Affairs LPA

Making a property and financial affairs LPA means that your attorney can make decisions about things such as your bank accounts, mortgage and paying bills.

Without a Lasting Power of Attorney...

  • The State may freeze your assets
  • Your pension may not be accessible
  • Your finances may be frozen

What if I lose mental capacity and I don't have a Power of Attorney?

If you lose the capacity to make your own decisions and you don’t have a valid lasting power of attorney, you will need to apply to the Court of Protection.

The Court of Protection can decide whether you have the mental capacity to make a decision or not.

Tailored advice and guidance

We understand that every situation is unique and different and requires a personal approach. This is why we take the time to sit down with you, get to know more about you and tailor all of our advice and guidance around your personal circumstances.

A compassionate service

None of us like to think about what might happen if we become ill or injured. Discussing the possibility of losing your mental capacity and issues surrounding it, is not an easy topic of conversation. Our specialists can explain to you what it means to have Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) in place and how you can appoint someone to make decisions on your behalf if you were to lose the capacity to do so.

We aim to make this experience as easy, straight forward and compassionate as possible.
